D.G.:Yes, I was just listening to an audio clip of the first announcement of the BATMAN VS. SUPERMAN movie, and the loud foul comment during it from one of the audience members soured my enjoyment of the moment.

Great points; great synopsis of so much. I think one of the problems today is that a flaw is often viewed as a bad thing (outside of obvious bad things) instead of an inherent part of a character's growth.

Awesome. I especially love the bit about humor. Sometimes we live in WAY too serious a world. I think that's why I like to read MG periodically...and occasionally write it, to stay young at heart and let the goofiness out.
